Instructions

  • Place the lemon wedges, cherries, and thyme sprig in the bottom of a high ball glass. Muddle well.

  • For the garnish, I took a pitted cherry and stuck a thyme stem through the hole in the center. It makes for a stirring stick that's edible and delicious.Rainier Cherry Scotch Thyme New Fashioned garnished
